On the 3rd of August, 6pm, we invite you to the presentation of an artistic investigation by Julija Rukanskaitė, developed during Ideas Block Textiles Summer course.

During the project the artist explored the performative aspect of weaving. Looking at it as a freeing ritualistic practice the author created a series of abstract anthropomorphic paintings.
Considering the anthropological approach, ritual is one of the mysteries of being human. Be it tribal or disenchanted social-media shaped human life, its invisible patterns still remain an autonomous phenomena, inhibiting each individual and opening new realities throughout time. Humans always believed to be able to perform magic using the oldest religious ritual form – visual imitation.
